Atheists: How many of you fell in “love” with your chemistry sets when you were children?

The Rev. Barnum Fife: Atheists: How many of you fell in “love” with your chemistry sets when you were children?
Do you allow yourself to “love” other people now, when both the “love” you feel and its object are no more than meaningless chemical reactions?

It’s all part of the way nature tricks you into playing along. “Look at that little babby, he’s sooooo CUTE!” Bah.

Answer by serf
I was into my chem set until I realized that they didn’t give me any cool chemicals to play with. Then I just resorted to making my own sparklers.

Anyway, chemical reactions that bring joy to my life and enrich my overall experience are cool with me.

Never had a chemistry set. We weren’t very affluent back then.

But I disagree with love being “meaningless”. To say that you’d have to first define “meaning”. Which I don’t think you would be able to.

i didnt have one, im not science minded, im creative

alow is nto the word you use when love is concerned
